Electrical impedance myography: A critical review and outlook.
Review in Clinical neurophysiology : official journal of the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Electrical impedance myography (EIM) technology is finding application in neuromuscular disease research as a tool to assess muscle health. Correlations between EIM outcomes, functional, imaging and histological data have been established in a variety of neuromuscular disorders; however, an analytical discussion of EIM is lacking. This review presents an explanation for clinicians and others who are applying EIM and interpreting impedance outcomes. The background of EIM is presented, including the relation between EIM, volume conduction properties, tissue structure, electrode configuration and conductor volume. Also discussed are technical considerations to guide the reader to critically evaluate EIM and understand its limitations and strengths.
